Teacher Spotlight: Mr. Harvy – From Job to Life-Changing Calling
08
Oct '25
Mr. Harvy graduated in 2018 as a telecommunications engineer. Like many young graduates, he dreamed of building a stable career. But reality was different—complicated financial struggles left him without work. Then came the pandemic, which only magnified his challenges. “All the economic problems seemed to fall on me at once,” he recalls.
Four years passed without stable employment. It was a season of testing, one that pushed him to depend on God in ways he never imagined.
At that time, Mr. Harvy was married to Miss Cindy, our school counselor. While she began working at Jubilee, he temporarily taught math at the school where she had previously been employed. Teaching, however, was never part of his original plan.
Then, unexpectedly, an opportunity appeared at Jubilee. He never imagined that coming to an interview would lead to an experience that would completely change his life. In his own words: “I asked God for a job where the main purpose would be to serve Him. After four years of waiting, He gave me something stable. What God was preparing for my life was the complete opposite of what I was pursuing. After three years here at Jubilee, I can say this is the best place I could be.”
Looking back, Mr. Harvy sees God’s hand clearly. The verse became real to him: “I have never seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread.” In every step, God proved His faithfulness.
More than just a math teacher, Mr. Harvy has become a mentor, counselor, and spiritual guide to many of our students.
Samuel, one of his students, shared: “For me, Mr. Harvy is someone who inspires me. He is an example to follow. He has been a great support in my life, and I love him very much.”
Liam, a 7th grader, added: “Mr. Harvy is like a friend to me. It’s as if he were my father. He has helped me a lot spiritually. He has guided me, taught me, and even helped me learn how to read the Bible.”
Mr. Harvy’s greatest dream is to see young people restored and filled with the presence of the Lord—a generation that boldly proclaims the name of Christ and truly worships Him. He humbly says: “My heart is thankful for the advice and patience the pastors and the principal have had with me. My desire is to remain on the right path until the Lord returns.”
His story reminds us that God’s plans often look very different from our own. What seemed like years of delay were actually years of preparation. Serving with love and faithfulness is never in vain—and when we place our trust in the Lord, He can transform our lives in ways beyond our imagination.

Student Spotlight: Daniela – A Pillar of Strength
08
Oct '25
Valerie Daniela is a seventh-grade girl who, despite her young age, has faced enormous challenges in her family life. Four years ago, her parents divorced. Because her mother was struggling financially at the time, custody was given to her father. The separation was difficult, and for a while, her father didn’t allow Valerie and her sisters to visit their mom because of the conflict between their parents.
In the middle of this broken situation, Daniela stepped into a role far beyond her years. She became the primary caregiver for her two younger sisters. When their parents separated, her middle sister was only six years old, and her youngest sister, Ana Lucía, was just two. Today, both are in school, but Daniela remains their greatest source of stability.
Every day she cooks meals in the mornings and afternoons, cleans the house, and makes sure her sisters complete their homework. She remembers how, when she was only a child herself, she had to change diapers, prepare bottles, and even bathe her little sister—tasks her father refused to do.
Reflecting on this, Daniela says, “A lot of times I feel desperate because I have to carry so many responsibilities at my age. But I’m sure that God is the one who will help me.”
Her faith in God has been her anchor. She constantly prays for her mother’s health, as she suffers from thyroid disease. She also asks God for economic stability in their home, believing that one day her mother will be able to take care of them again. Daniela intercedes for her sisters, praying that they will grow strong in the Lord. And she prays for herself, asking God to guard her heart and give her strength to keep her faith in the hardest moments.
Her relationship with her father has been difficult, as he has a harsh character. Yet Daniela recognizes that he is also fighting his own battles and is trying to learn more about God. Her mom, on the other hand, is a devoted Christian who constantly encourages her daughters to stay strong and to trust in the Lord’s promises, reminding them that victory belongs to God.
Despite the weight of her responsibilities, Daniela dreams big. She wants to study law one day so that she can defend women who suffer abuse, advocate for immigrants, and create shelters for people who have nowhere else to go. Her deepest desire is to serve those who are most in need.
Her favorite Bible passage is Psalm 22–23, a reminder that even in suffering, the Lord is present and faithful.
Today, Daniela is both the practical and emotional support of her family. She has carried the role of caregiver, sister, and encourager. But as much as she appears mature beyond her years, it is important to remember that she is still just a young girl. She needs encouragement, love, and prayer as she continues to grow in her faith.
At her young age, Daniela shines as a pillar of faith, hope, and love in her family.

Jubilee Concert 2025 – “Jesus at the Center of It All”
08
Oct '25
This year’s Jubilee Concert was an unforgettable celebration of Christ’s life, love, and resurrection. Across three powerful performances, students shared the story of Jesus through music, dance, drama, and an original song inspired by Luke 4:18–19, proclaiming the gospel and the mission Christ has entrusted to us.
Over 1,000 people attended, filling our chapel and theater to capacity. The excitement and energy were palpable—even the air conditioning struggled to keep up! Audience members were awestruck, often asking, “Where did we find such great actors and musicians?” Incredibly, these talented performers are our very own students, some trained in musical and theatrical arts since they were children.
Behind the Scenes:
The production required months of preparation, with students attending extra rehearsals after school and on weekends. Costumes and sets were entirely designed and created by Jubilee staff and volunteers, including hand-painted backdrops and custom props. Every detail, from lighting to choreography, was carefully crafted to glorify God and immerse the audience in the story of Christ.

Student Reflections:
Jeremy, who played Jesus, shared:
“When I carried the cross, I saw people crying. It was so emotional because we were giving testimony that Jesus exists, that He resurrected, and that He forgives our sins. When I left the tomb as Jesus resurrected, the joy in the audience was incredible. The Lord used me as an instrument. For me, it was the greatest honor.”
Nelson, portraying Judas, said:
“I wasn’t going to play Judas, but when I was given the role, I felt confronted and identified with him. It affected me deeply. The Lord showed me that Judas didn’t get a chance to repent, but I do. It reminded me that God gives everyone an opportunity to be redeemed.”
Pastor David, who oversees the concert, added:
“Every year, the concert’s theme and script come from a word God places on my heart. This year, seeing people gather, worship, and rejoice, I realize the Lord is answering prayers. Telling the story of Christ is the greatest story ever told—there is nothing more powerful than Jesus.”
Fun Fact: The concert included an original Gospel-inspired song, written by Jubilee staff, that has now become a favorite among the school community. Students not only performed it on stage but also recorded it, creating a lasting reminder of their faith and creativity.

“He Has Sent Me” — Our brand new song 2025
23
Jul '25
We are thrilled to introduce our newest original worship song: He Has Sent Me. This joyful and Spirit-filled anthem was born straight from the heart of God — and from the heart of our ministry. While its rhythm is uplifting and full of energy, its message runs deep: this is a song for the brokenhearted.
Inspired by our theme verse for the year, Luke 4:18–19, this song is a declaration of our mission:
“The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because He has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to set the oppressed free, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.”
Just like this powerful Scripture, He Has Sent Me reminds us of the calling that rests on each of us — to go, to love, to heal, and to proclaim salvation. The song was deeply inspired by the Great Commission, the command Jesus gave to go into all the world and share the Good News.
As we worked on the lyrics, we felt a strong burden for those who are carrying unseen wounds — the ones who feel alone, forgotten, or misunderstood. Even though the melody is joyful, the true heartbeat of the song is compassion. We want this music to reach those whose hearts are broken, who are longing for love, hope, and restoration.
Our prayer is that both the video and the song won’t be just something to listen to — but a vessel to reach the hurting, to bring a message of life and healing through Christ. We believe that God will use this song to speak to the hearts of many, and we are simply grateful to be part of His beautiful work.
He Has Sent Me — coming soon. May it be a blessing to you, and to all who need to hear the message of God’s unfailing love.Read more...

Families Growing in Faith
25
Jun '25
One of the greatest joys at Jubilee is watching how God transforms families. Some are just beginning their walk with Jesus, others have remained faithful for years, and some are testimonies of answered prayers.
Here are three special families that show what God is doing through this ministry.
The Rodríguez Family – A New Beginning
Their journey started when Aisha, a third grader, shared with her teacher, Ms. Yorleny, that she wanted to go to church. That same week, she invited Aisha and her family to Jubilee. Ms. Lysbeth even picked them up on Sunday morning to make sure they felt welcomed.
Since that day, the Rodríguez family hasn’t missed a Sunday. Aisha’s mom, Doña Cintia, says:
“We’ve felt like home here. Every Sunday teaches us something new. The children’s ministry has helped our daughters a lot. As a family, we look forward to Sundays with joy. We’re growing, reflecting, and even changing habits we didn’t realize we had.”
Sister María’s Family – Years of Prayer
For 11 years, Sister María and her daughters prayed for their husband and father to come to church. There were times of discouragement, but they never gave up—always asking the church to pray with them.
Then, one day, the prayer was answered.
“When he finally came, we were filled with joy and gratitude,” she shares. “Now we pray together, spend more time as a family, and support each other in ways we didn’t before.”
She encourages other families:
“Don’t give up. Even when it seems like nothing is changing, God is always working.”
The Rodríguez Bonilla Family – A Firm Foundation
This family has been part of Jubilee since the very beginning. Brother Carlos joined in 2015 after seeing how the church was changing the lives of his wife and children. Now, his daughter Gaby is part of the Jubilee staff, married to Mr. Alexander—also a team member.
He shares:
“Jubilee is a church that seriously preaches Christ. We’ve seen God work in our family—growing in faith, loving the Lord, and walking with reverence. God began something in us, and He keeps working to perfect it.”
At Jubilee, we’ve seen families begin, grow, and stand firm in Christ. These stories are just a glimpse of what God is doing.
Be Part of the Story
If you want to experience this love and transformation, come join us on a mission trip in 2026. You’ll be part of something real, powerful, and full of joy. Let God use you—and bless you—through families like these.

A Day to Celebrate: Student’s Day at Jubilee 🎉
17
Jun '25
At Jubilee, we believe every child is a gift from God—and that’s why Student’s Day is such a special celebration for us each year. It’s a time to pause, reflect on the joy our students bring to our community, and simply have fun!
This year’s celebration was full of laughter, surprises, and creativity. Each classroom turned into a joyful space, where teachers went the extra mile to make their students feel loved and celebrated.
One of the highlights of the day was a special performance by the teachers. With music, costumes, and a whole lot of heart, our staff surprised the students with a fun and creative show. It was a beautiful way to show students how much they are appreciated—not just through words, but through joy-filled action.
Later, the fun continued with our beloved costume runway. Students proudly walked the “stage” showing off their colorful, funny, and creative outfits. From superheroes and animals to princesses and original characters, the hallway became a celebration of imagination and confidence. It was a moment where every child felt seen and celebrated.
While the day was full of play, we also look ahead with hearts of prayer. Exam week is approaching, and we know it brings challenges for many of our students. As a community, we’re lifting up each child in prayer—asking the Lord for peace, clarity, energy, and wisdom. We believe our students are not only smart and capable but also deeply loved by a God who walks with them in every season, including test week.
As Nehemiah 8:10 reminds us: “The joy of the Lord is your strength.”
That joy was clear on Student’s Day—and we pray it continues to fill our classrooms during this exam season.
Thank you for praying with us, supporting us, and rejoicing in all that God is doing through the lives of our students.

Jubilee’s Science Fair 2025
04
Jun '25
Last week, Jubilee launched an amazing activity: our Science Fair! It was a true carnival of invention, innovation, creativity, and fun—filled with exciting ways to explore common experiments and brand-new ideas.
The whole thing started in the classroom some weeks earlier, where students prepared and presented their first tests and prototypes. In every grade, we saw awesome experiments, but some of them were simply amazing!
Here are a few highlights:
- The Elephant paste Experiment: Our little ones from Pre-K amazed us with their eloquent explanation of this colorful and exciting chemical reaction. They explained how it demonstrates the principles behind modern fire extinguishers—an engaging and fun way to explore chemistry at a young age.
- Smart Glasses for the Visually Impaired: Armed by our 9th-grade scientists, this invention truly impressed us. They created a low-cost prototype to help people with vision loss, spending only around $60. After researching, they discovered that similar products on the market cost approximately $3,500. This high-quality invention has great potential to make a real impact for those in need.
- Firefighting Robot: 10th-grade students created and built a small robot capable of detecting and extinguishing fires using heat sensors. Programmed through Arduino, the robot can locate the fire and take action to control it. It was an “out-of-the-box” innovation with real possibilities—both for home use and, if expanded, for entire cities!
- The Coandă Effect Demonstration: Our 4th graders gave a fantastic and simple explanation of this fascinating physical effect. They showed how air tends to stick to curved surfaces, helping us understand why airplanes can lift off the ground.
Many inventions and experiments were showcased, from chemistry and robotics to physics and technology. The Jubilee Science Fair was not only a demonstration of knowledge but a true celebration of creativity, teamwork, and purpose-driven learning. We’re so proud of our young scientists!

A New Adventure Begins: Our Playground Inauguration!
17
Mar '25
Something incredible has happened at Jubilee! We have officially inaugurated our brand-new playground, a dream come true for our little ones. A space designed just for them, where they can climb, race toy cars, and experience the pure joy of childhood.
But before the laughter and excitement filled the air, we dedicated this space to the Lord. Our inauguration began with a powerful devotional, where we lifted our voices in worship, prayed over this special place, and invited God’s presence to dwell among us. It was a holy and unforgettable moment—a divine beginning. And then, with hearts full of gratitude, we cut the ribbon!
As the children ran in with bright eyes and unstoppable energy, we couldn’t help but rejoice. This playground is more than just a play area; it’s a place of joy, friendship, and God’s love in action. Every slide, every climb, every race with tiny toy cars is a reminder of the abundant life God gives His children.
We ask for your prayers over this space, that it may always be a place of laughter and safety, where our little ones grow in strength, courage, and faith. May this playground be a symbol of God’s goodness and provision for years to come!
Come and see what the Lord is doing in Honduras! Join us on a mission with Jubilee—a week filled with love, worship, and unforgettable cultural experiences!

Meet Our New Teachers at Jubilee!
12
Mar '25
At Jubilee International, we are blessed to welcome new teachers and staff members who share a deep love for Christ and a passion for education. This year, we introduce four amazing individuals who are already making a significant impact on our students.
Ms. Nohely – Academic Secretary
My name is Nohely Maithe Gutiérrez Tercero, and I am the Academic Secretary of this prestigious educational center. Being part of Jubilee International is a great blessing in my life because my job is an answered prayer from God. I am married, and I firmly believe that one of my greatest purposes in this ministry is to help children and young people develop a deeper relationship with God and live according to His will.
I want to be an example of waiting on the Lord Jesus, knowing that everything happens in His perfect timing. Through knowledge of the Word, prayer, and devotionals, I hope to help students grow intellectually while strengthening their faith and character. At the same time, I pray that I continue growing spiritually and professionally.
Ms. Paola – Natural Science Teacher
Blessings! My name is Paola Medina, and I am the Natural Science teacher at Jubilee. My greatest hope is to be a reflection of Christ for my students, so that they may see the Lord through my life. Thanks to Jubilee, I feel closer to God every day. Teaching here is more than a job—it is a calling that allows me to inspire my students not only to appreciate the wonders of science but also to recognize God’s presence in creation.
Mr. Escobar – Mathematics Teacher
My name is Bryan Isaac Escobar Rico. I studied mathematics, a subject I am passionate about teaching. My greatest purpose at Jubilee International is to share the love of our Lord Jesus with my students. I want them to know and respect His commandments, understand the rules for living, and recognize that Jesus is our only salvation. Through my subject, I pray that God will use me to instill spiritual, moral, and ethical values in my students’ lives.
Although I have only been at Jubilee for a short time, I have already experienced supernatural moments that are hard to explain, but they have filled the emptiness in my heart. One of the greatest blessings has been the way my faith in the Lord has been strengthened. The devotionals for teachers and students have drawn me closer to God, allowing me to fulfill the purpose He has given me—to serve the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
Isaiah 41:10 says: “Do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.” This verse guides me as I serve at Jubilee.
Ms. Andrea – Skills Teacher
Skills are essential in shaping well-rounded individuals, and as the new Skills teacher at Jubilee, I am dedicated to helping my students develop abilities that will serve them throughout their lives. I strive to integrate faith and learning, ensuring that my students not only gain practical skills but also use them to glorify God. I believe that education is a powerful tool for both personal and spiritual growth, and I am excited to guide my students in discovering and developing their God-given talents.
We are so grateful for these new team members who are bringing their talents and hearts for Christ to Jubilee. Their dedication to both education and faith makes them a perfect fit for our school community. We pray that God continues to bless them as they serve and inspire our students every day!
Welcome to the Jubilee family!
“The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face shine on you and be gracious to you; the Lord turn his face toward you and give you peace.” – Numbers 6:24-26

A Taste of Love: Our Mission Trip Sisters Bring Joy Through Cooking
26
Feb '25
This week, we have been blessed with the presence of our dear sisters from the United States, who have come on a mission trip to share love, joy, and delicious food with our children. Their kindness and dedication have touched our hearts in so many ways, and we are beyond grateful for their time with us.
From the moment they arrived, they have been a source of happiness, especially in the kitchen! Together with our students, they have prepared homemade pizza, filling our space with laughter, teamwork, and, of course, the wonderful aroma of freshly baked goodness. Today, the excitement continues as they cook lasagna with the kids—a special moment of learning, fun, and shared memories around the table.
More than just food, we have witnessed the Spirit of God moving through them and all around us. Their love and service remind us of the beauty of fellowship and the joy of giving. We are truly honored to have them here and pray that their time with us will be filled with blessings.
As a special treat, we also have a video recap of our retreat with the amazing students of 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade. Watch and celebrate with us the joy and transformation that God is bringing to our community!
We invite YOU to come and experience one of the greatest adventures in the world—visiting Jubilee and seeing firsthand how the Spirit lives here. Join us for a week of love, worship, and cultural experiences that will change your heart forever.
